Old School Soccer Gaming

You can find the damnedest things on Youtube some times. Remember back when MLS had it's own video game? Probably not unless you are aged like me. Behold the grainy, imperfect images of the intro to ESPN's MLS Extratime for PS2. As great as FIFA is it would be kind of nice if MLS still had it's own game.

I think it'd be sweet if they came out with a truly authentic MLS video game. It would be full of micro-managing: you'd have to comply with the salary cap, navigate roster restrictions, and make sure your target DP is the perfect fit before bringing him in. An MLS game with extremely detailed management stuff like that would be very very cool to me.
